“Our first time having Sarah watch our 2 cats. It was a great experience. She is professional, follows directions and is conscientious. We received detailed notes from her visits w pictures of our cats and the tasks that she took care of. Thank you. We will definitely be repeat customers.”

About: I’ve had several different kinds of pets growing up and currently have my own dog and cat. I know that each animal needs its own special kind of love and I am dedicated to understanding and proving your pet with exactly what they need while I care for them. I am currently staying with family so I have an open schedule! Book me for all your pet needs and I can provide quality care :) I have a fenced in yard with three other dogs in the home to keep your pet company. These dogs are very friends and well adapted to meeting others. I can provide walks and timely feeding while caring for your pet.
About: I grew up with dogs and had my first cat siblings in university. I’ve grown as a person because of them and understand and appreciate their special place as family. I’ve volunteered at the local shelter, as an adoption admin at a dog rescue and shelter. I’ve taken my dog to training and agility and learned a whole bunch more training skills at the dog rescue and shelter. I am also a Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioner which my own dogs and clients have enjoyed and appreciated. It was my nightly thing with one of my dogs. I have a special bond with animals in general and deep ones with some. It’s such a blessing, a gift I appreciate. I tutor, have a part time job, and I offer Jin Shin Jyutsu, bioresonance, and Human Design services. At this time I can only take dogs and cats who can be left alone for 4 hours at a time. Building trust with your dog and cat is of utmost importance. I am approachable and it’s important for them to have their space. They are the priority. I will play with them, practice obedience or tricks with them with positive reinforcement.
About: I love all types of animals. I have experience in rabbits, cats & dogs. My family has always had animals, it’s a second nature to me. I am currently unemployed but looking for part time work. I would love to pick up pet sitting opportunities as much as possible. I have a free and open schedule. I do not offer pet services in my home but at the clients home I am more than willing to crate animals or let them out into a fenced in yard to watch them. I am good with rewarding with treats, having play time, picking up poop, cleaning, etc. I am fully capable of the responsibility it takes to care and build trust with animals.
“Chelsea was wonderful - super responsive throughout the entire process and took great care of my little cat. She sent photos and went out of her way to make sure my cat was well cared for while I was gone! I would use Chelsea as a sitter again in a heartbeat.”
“Victoria was absolutely wonderful! She accepted our last-minute request for cat boarding the night before we needed it with a positive, easygoing attitude. Victoria sent daily pictures and updates, and her love of animals and care for them shone through!”
About: I’m patient with animals. Consistent noises like a baby whining doesn’t bother me as much as others. I don’t overwhelm the animals to get to know me, I let them warm up to me first. I also just enjoy being around them. I’m open to all the days of the week at the moment. I cant accept anything before 9 am and after 10pm though, and don’t do overnight pet sitting. I make sure I’m known first in the house so they know I’m there, if there accepting of it, I’ll go pet them and give them attention, but if there being more distant I’ll naturally give them there space and let them warm up to me. I’ll treat them as if they were my own pet.
About: I have taken care of many family & friends dogs and cats (and other types of pets) over the years. I have never had an issue with even the unruly ones. I am able to gain an animals trust quickly and am intuitive on how to approach them & care for them. I have a special needs nephew that I am a Respite Careworker for, I help administer his medications and am confident I can administer meds to any animal as well. I have also been taking care of my disabled mom for the last few years and am a mother of 2 (new empty nester). I have a lot of patience and don't get upset with messes. Everything is washable in my opinion. Although I will keep your house as tidy as possible if I am House Sitting for you. I live in Santa Maria, but am available for pet/house sitting in any part of Santa Barbara or San Luis Counties depending on the day(s). I would consider traveling further on the weekends if I am able. I am a responsible & trustworthy person, who genuinely enjoys caring for others. I work from home on Mon & Fri, so I am only unavailable during the day on Tues/Wed/Thurs. I am able to care for animals in the morning before I leave for work and every evening. I recently lost my dog at the ripe old age of 17, I used to walk my dog every day, so I know all the good dog walking spots in the area. I love hiking as well, so if your dog is up for it, I am happy to take them hiking too. I work in conjunction with my partner who is home during the day, so if there is a need for more exercise, feedings or medication during the day, we can facilitate that. I enjoy the company of animals, so they would be included in everything I do, as much as possible. I used to take my dog everywhere with me. I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, only because they are more comfortable there. My place is not very big, so it depends on how much space they are used to. I can sit 2-3 dogs at a time if they are not too big. I have room for a crate, but not more than one. I do have a is fenced in yard with a locked gate.
About: I've cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from my own 3 pound Yorkie to 100 pound German Shepherds, as well as cats! I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I'll provide reliable, attentive care and treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I'm currently attending college online, which means I'm home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! Since I'm home, your pet will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. I live in an apartment, but we have a fenced dog area where pets can safely get outside time and enjoy some play. I also take dogs on daily walks to help them stay active and happy. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having a companion around, but I always make sure to respect each pet’s individual personality and comfort level. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible :)
About: WILLING TO NEGOTIATE PRICING, I AM FLEXIBLE. If you don’t like the price, tell me. I have taken care of animals my whole life since I have grown up around several dogs and cats in my household. I began actually pet-sitting as a side job when I was fourteen years old. Now, at 21 years old I also housesit people's properties, walk dogs, provide drop-ins, and stay overnight to watch over pets. Not only have I taken care of cats and dogs, but farm animals as well including goats, sheep, horses, ponies, alpaca and chickens. I love being around all kinds of animals. I like to keep very open and quick response time with my communication. I want to make the owners feel safe and comfortable with me watching over their fur babies and their home. I am a full time student at PCPA’s acting conservatory located in Santa Maria. I completed my Bachelors in Psychology at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. I have housesitting gigs and babysit whenever I am not at school. Through Rover, I am hoping to gain more regular clients and meet new people and their adorable fur babies. I enjoy quality time with cats and dogs. Am able to watch over farm animals as well. I have taken care of chickens, horses, sheep, goats, llamas, alpaca, and reptiles. I stay on top of things and am very proficient. I appreciate through instructions, since each owner is particular with their routine with their pets. I am very flexible and am excited to help in anyway I can!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Grover Beach
It's a bit rare to have someone who's experienced with rabbits, Lauren is top notch in that regard! It was a huge peace of mind knowing someone could drop in on them each day and also get them some exercise and human interaction. I really appreciated her enthusiasm and level of care, detail, and updates!
I genuinely cannot say enough good things about her! This was our first time having someone watch our kitties, and she made the entire experience so wonderful. Both of our cats have very different personalities, and knowing they were being cared for by someone so kind, patient, and attentive meant the world to us. It’s not easy trusting someone else with your pets, but she made us feel so comfortable while we were away. We came home feeling so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our babies. We will absolutely be booking with her again and couldn’t recommend her enough! 🤍
Bonnie provided amazing care for my cat, Leeloo, whike we were on vacation. It was our first real trip in years and I was nervous about how Leeloo would fare without us. Bonnie's updates every day and the photos she sent eased my mind and warmed my heart. When we returned Leeloo was happy and content. I am looking forward to future trips now that I know Bonnie will be there for my girl.
Hannah was great! It really allowed me to relax knowing my kitty was taken care of. You can tell she loves animals and is very responsible. Her communication was great and she went out of her way to make sure my kitty got everything that he would get if I were there. ❤️
Riley checked in on our 4 cats while we were in holiday for 1.5 weeks. She was AWESOME! So attentive to our cats and their needs/environment, very communicative (we loved and appreciated her updates and Photos) and was very kind. We felt that our kitties were in wonderful hands. Would highly recommend!
Shelby did an outstanding job and I would definitely book again. Communication was great, lots of photos with a detailed breakdown of the visit. Took lots of notes during the initial meet and greet. Punctual with all visits. I felt no stress at work with my pets care. My dog and cat both seemed to love their company! Would definitely re-book.
We found Madison to be conscientious, on time and very caring towards our kitty. Her communication was excellent and we were very happy with the service. We feel better planning future trips knowing we have someone to take care of a special member of the family!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Grover Beach is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $44 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
